Rainbow Drabbles  by Jay of Lasgalen 6 Review(s)

I love how with such a small drabble, you've still managed to paint a very immense cavern. Elladan looking at the distant torches really brings that point home. Also loved that he was more concerned with the smoke from his own torch than with the Dead following. Few would be so calm.

Author Reply: The cavern and the passages must have been vast - but in the darkness it would be impossible to see that. The torches were a way of showing that distance.

I don't know about calm - Elladan just didn't like the smoke in his eyes!

Ooo, very evocative. I can clearly see the scene as you've set it.

Author Reply: Thank you - what a dark, eerie journey that was!

*shivers* you do a great job setting the scene.

Author Reply: Thank you - but it was such an eerie place, I didn't need to do much.

You do a good job of showing the details of walking the Paths of the Dead: the gloom, the composition of the stone, and the light that will bring hope.

Excellent response to the prompt, and one I find myself responding to!

Very creepy, and nice use of flames and yellow. Not good reading for late at night. Too eerie!
